KNOLL TRUST

OUR MAIN INTENTION IS TO KEEP THE HILL AS IT IS.

IT IS HOPED TO OBTAIN CONSERVATION GRANTS TO COVER THE MAINTENANCE COSTS AND FOR MANAGEMENT OF THE LAND.

THERE IS A POSSIBILITY OF ESTABLISHING WILD FLOWER AREAS, AS THE LAND IS NOT AS FERTILE AS SOME, AND THEY WILL NOT HAVE TO COMPETE WITH VIGOUROUS GRASS GROWTH, ENABLING WILD FLOWERS TO ESTABLISH WITH MORE SUCCESS.

THE BOUNDARY NEEDS SOME ATTENTION. AT THE MOMENT, MOTORBIKES ARE USING THE HILL WHICH ISN`T COMPATIBLE WITH OTHER USERS, WALKERS, DOG OWNERS AND HORSE RIDERS ETC.

IF SUCCESSFUL WITH OWNERSHIP IT WOULD BE NICE TO HOLD A `THANK YOU` DAY IN THE SUMMER WITH POSSIBLY A 4WD OR TRACTOR TAXI SERVICE FOR ANYONE UNABLE TO CLIMB THE KNOLL TO ENABLE THEM TO JOIN IN THE CELEBRATIONS.

THE PARISH OWNS THE LAND ON THE MAP MARKED RED AND THE MONUMENT TRUST OWN THE LAND MARKED BLUE AND THE 14 ACRES WE WISH TO ACQUIRE IS IN GREEN.

WE ARE VERY KEEN TO WORK IN CLOSE CONTACT WITH BOTH THE PARISH COUNCIL AND THE MONUMENT TRUST WHO HAVE A JOINT INTEREST IN THE KNOLL.

ANY KIND DONATIONS WILL ENSURE THE WHOLE OF THE KNOLL IS HELD IN PUBLIC OWNERSHIP TO BE ENJOYED BY EVERYONE FOR EVER. PEOPLE TRAVEL FROM FAR AND WIDE TO WALK TO THE KNOLL, SO PLEASE INFORM YOUR FRIENDS AND VISITORS....THIS IS NOT JUST AN APPEAL TO NIBLEY PEOPLE!

THIS IS A LARGE SUM OF MONEY TO RAISE IN A SHORT PERIOD AND WE APPEAL TO YOUR GENEROSITY AND YOUR GOODWILL TO PRESERVE THE KNOLL AS IT IS.
